Chapter 466 Agriculture-oriented!
When the Tuoba clan was gathering the party's army outside Weizhou, 15,000 people led by Cui Wei, Zhuge Qi and others also rushed to Weizhou to garrison.
At this time, before the real war, the two sides are still in the period of scolding every day. Obviously, the Tuoba clan is not very sure about capturing Weizhou, and they are very cautious between the platoons...
Song Yi did not come to Weizhou in person. This time, he handed over all the command and command to Zhuge Qi! It is both a test and a trust for him. After all, Zhuge Qi has always been a military division before Song Yi took over the mighty army. Song Yi had to give him enough space to play.
But while delegating power to Zhuge Qi, he did not leave some backhands. At least Ye Li Qinchuan and others did not appear in the city head of Weizhou at this moment.
And where did Nori Serikawa go? I'm afraid few people know about it...
When the situation in Weizhou was tense, Qin Cheng'en and others suffered the first big defeat in Goryeo.
In the period before New Year's Eve, when Cui Wei and others withdrew from Goryeo, no one realized that a larger army attacked the royal city of Goryeo and occupied it.
However, Yan Yun's side, and even Youzhou's side, didn't even receive a trace of wind, not to mention the capital?
It can raid the King City of Goryeo with lightning speed and defeat the remnants of the powerful Liao Kingdom and occupy the King City of Goryeo after a short time without any movement... Under the world, except for Zhao Weijin!
No one would have thought that the State of Jin, who withdrew from Yanyun, took advantage of the New Year's Eve to capture the King City of Goryeo as a place to rest and recuperate. Before that, Wanyan Mingzhu secretly came to the vicinity of Youzhou to see Song Yi.
If Song Yi received the news from Gao Li, he would feel that Wanyan Mingzhu's side when she saw her was originally to confuse him, but secretly she had already taken action against Gao Li, just to make Yan Yun's side not notice it!
...
The news of the defeat in Goryeo has not yet come, and Song Yi is actually not on that side, because he has now directly let Wang Shu plan and deduce these things by himself. Song Yi himself is busy formulating the management method of Yanyun. With his brainpower, all the useful information he can think of has been put into practice in Yanyun.
This is like playing a game on the computer, but he has the actual construction right. Song Yi uses all the effective methods that can come to his mind for Yanyun, but he also needs to consider the rationality. If he blindly carries the advanced scientific routines in the memory of his previous life, it is likely to be at such a time. It's counterproductive!
So Song Yi's most important means is still used to develop farming. After all, this is just an era of farming.
In order to develop farming, in addition to the necessary manpower, we also need to have farm tools!
Song Yi spent some time studying the current agricultural tools. Most people only have simple farm tools, and many agricultural jobs can only be done by manpower!
For example, in the matter of plowing, most people do not have cattle at this time. They can only drag the plow forward with their shoulders. What's more difficult is that the plows at this time are made of iron, and most of them are made of wood... In this way, it is natural that the labor paid is not equal to the harvest.
Therefore, if you want to do a good job, you must first use your tools. The first thing Song Yi thought of is to replace the current farming tools. There are large areas of land in Yanyun that need to be cultivated and reclaimed. If there is no advanced farming tools to replace, the time required must be endless.
The replacement of farming tools must require a large amount of iron. Although there are many iron ore in Yanyun, the manpower for mining is insufficient, and the people who master ironmaking technology are still limited.
For this point, Song Yi has sent people elsewhere to hire some craftsmen and people who know ironmaking technology to Yanyun. In any era, not paying attention to technology will be the biggest mistake!
Fortunately, the business of the State of Zhao is very prosperous, and the importance attached to technology is far greater than that of other dynasties. Part of this credit must be attributed to Zhao Kuangyin's emphasis on literature over martial arts!
In terms of manpower, the only way Song Yi thought of was to make reasonable use of Yan Yun's recruits at this time. After all, it is not necessary to fight all the time to raise soldiers for a thousand days, so it is necessary to combine soldiers and people to open mines.
Of course, in order to keep the soldiers from being dissatisfied, the soldiers who participate in the mining will definitely be given a considerable reward! And even if Song Yi doesn't mention the matter of mining, a large number of rich businessmen will be willing to participate in it.
The Wang family lost the unique benefits of Bianzhou. The first benefit of coming to Youzhou is to have the mining right. This is also because the Wang family is a big shipbuilding industry, among which there are many craftsmen and people. Although he does not want to communicate with mining, Song Yi knows that there is one thing that will definitely help the Wang family in the future. Force - that's the armor of the ship.
If one day, Yanyun's iron ore is fully mined, then with the increase of iron, some war scenes will be used. Although the water war does not seem to have much trend at this time, Song Yi has a more far-reaching vision.
To form a strong fleet, in addition to the ship being able to withstand wind and waves, it needs to be equipped with unique fighting and attack capabilities.
Song Yishang, an advanced weapon such as big guns and cannons, was helpless, but it was not the first thing Song Yi thought of covering the ship with a layer of 'armor'. What Song Yi wanted to do was not only to cover the ship with a layer of armor, but also to try to replace some parts of the ship with replaceable metal parts in the future.
The mining right is forbidden to be privately owned outside Yanyun, and Yanyun is no exception. Therefore, first of all, the name of mining must be the name of King Yanyun. The court is just a form, and no one will really come to Yanyun to interfere! Even if he can interfere, in another way, Song Yi only needs to do this secretly Chen Cang, and there is nothing the court can do...
In addition to the Wang family, the first to obtain the mining rights are the salt gang, Yutou Zhang, and the Su family is equivalent to the most closely connected family of Yanyun Wangfu.
And Song Yi has begun to collect all the iron tools in Yanyun and transform them into agricultural tools before the mining of the mine! And this kind of agricultural tools are not distributed to every family for free, and in that case, Yanyun still can't afford it.
Song Yi's method is to implement the leasing system. After the agricultural tools are built from the blacksmith's shop, they will be under the public management of every place! That is to say, if it is Zhuang, then how many agricultural tools will be distributed by Yizhuang, which is managed by the public. If you need to use farm tools, you must rent them, and you must pay a small part of money or goods.
In addition to the cost of purchasing these farm tools themselves, the rest of the money will become the public surplus, which will be used to help the village at any special time in the future.
The drawback of this method is that it is easy to cause people to bully others or enrich their own pockets. Therefore, Song Yi set up a place to expose any government office and outside Youzhou City without changing the official system... This is similar to the petition system.
This method can make some people restrain their greed to a certain extent. Although some people's boldness cannot be completely eliminated, Song Yi can only try to think of more ways to make fewer loopholes...
